but joe is right. if romney doesn't win virginia, if he wins iowa and wisconsin both of which are risk today, new polls show the race in wisconsin is dead even. in iowa, we have only old polling here to put it in the obama camp. if you look at the new tv, they are buying, heavy, heavy, heavy in iowa that says to me it's a sure sign the state is up for grabs. >> bret: looking at this map do you say the odds at this point favor a romney win? >> first of all, two things i'm writing in my column on thursday in the "wall street journal" on 3-2-1. i think there is an easier path for victory for romney than for obama. obama can no longer take for granted states like indiana and north carolina. he will be defending turf. it's harder when you defend turf than when you go after it. the second thing is if you want to get to the map go to rogue.com sign up and we will send it to you every two weeks to follow the debate free. >> bret: wow. >> by going to rove.com. >> bret: or watch "special report." >> right. >> th
